is that tourists are walking in the middle of the street and they are concerned as the cars come down the road there to be an accident. they are worried about noise levels and general congestion in the street. for what the long-term effect will be remains to be seen. we did talk with a resident earlier that did not want to appear on camera, but said he has seen a marked increase in the number of tourists that visit lombard over the years, but it doesn't bother him. san francisco police are investigating a takeover style robbery inside a nail salon that led to a police chase and crash. it happened just before 8:00 last night octavian street. three men arms with guns robbed people in the nail salon and drove off. that led to a police chase, which ended when the robber's car crashed in a second vehicle. three people in the second vehicle had minor injuries, police say they were able to catch two of the robbers, but the third got away. the red cross is helping 10

the winds are generally light, but coming in from the west. take a look at san francisco, pointing to the west. the low clouds are back. hugging up against the coast line. so a mix of those low clouds, a bit of a thicker marine layer and the onshore breeze is going to drive the temperatures down a bit. the inland areas should get some relief. in napa, where the northerly winds really cranked up the afternoon highs all the way to about 90 yesterday, 81 expected for today. so you will definitely feel that difference there. the rest of us dropping off a few degrees. you can see concord is 89 yesterday, 85 today. a minor cool down expected for the afternoon with the westerly onshore breeze. giving you a look at the satellite view, the trough has been over the gulf of alaska all week. you can see the pressure over southern california. we are right here in between, with each day we've seen subtle fluctuation. some days we are 5 degrees warmer, and some days we are 5
